Amid a split of authority created by state supreme court decisions in Michigan, Colorado, and now Maine, the New York State Board of Elections (NYSBOE) is reviewing a letter signed by five Democrat New York state senators who are calling for the removal of former President Donald Trump’s name from the April 2, 2024, primary ballot.
“As is everything else that has been submitted, in due time we'll make a decision,” NYSBOE Commissioner Anthony J. Casale told The Epoch Times. “It’s not just because someone makes a request that they get a response right away. There’s a legal process for determining candidates.”
